Second minor league umpire joins lawsuit against MLB​

A second minor league umpire joined a lawsuit against Major League Baseball, alleging he was fired after he reported he was sexually assaulted by a female umpire. Brandon Cooper, an umpire who worked in the minor league Arizona Complex League last year, sued MLB and PDL Blue Inc., an affiliated entity, last April in federal court in Manhattan. Alexander Lawrie joined the suit Tuesday as an additional plaintiff in an amended complaint. Lawrie said he was a minor league umpire from 2019 until he was fired this past April 1. He said MLB cited "performance issues."

The Associated Press does not usually identify people who say they've been victims of sexual assault, but Cooper's publicist consented to his name being used. In the original suit, Cooper alleged a hostile work environment and wrongful termination and/or retaliation because of gender and sexual orientation under New York state and city law. MLB is based in New York. The amended complaint adds an additional claim of violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The suit says the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission issued a right to sue to Cooper on July 11 and Lawrie filed a request for a right to sue on Sept. 26.
